Getting Ahead

Rock star employees must be keen with time management, expert says Star employees are important pieces of organizations and can help boost the productivity of the business as a whole, but time management is key to make the day-to-day run smoothly, writes Sue Shellenbarger. Allow colleagues to perform many of your nonessential work tasks, and effectively manage your time to avoid burning out. The Wall Street Journal (tiered subscription model) (1/29) Avoid the comparison game at work, focus on upping your own game Avoid feeling down when a colleague achieves a milestone or finishes a key project, and instead use this moment to up your own game to achieve your own success. You play a role in your teammates' success, job coach Adunola Adeshola points out, so be sure to recognize your value in others' successes. Forbes (1/29)

Making the Connection

Traditional networking isn't right for everyone, but there are other ways Traditional networking may not be ideal for everyone, suggests Shana Lebowitz, as it consumes a lot of time and effort that could instead be spent on building and developing new skills. Some successful people are a bit more introverted and have seen success in networking via posting comments and liking others' social media posts rather than taking part in face-to-face meetings of traditional networking.
